The ledger was found in the home of his son, John William, after his death in 1967. The pages are copies and the owner of the original is unknown. A partial English translation along with footnotes was made by Patti Thureen, possibly as part of a class project at UND. After the death of Martin, his widow continued with entries until 1911.
